[pt] Esta dissertação tem como objetivo problematizar o lugar em que o ‘loucocriminoso’ foi inserido ao longo de todos esses séculos dentro da história da Psiquiatria. Preocupamo-nos em mostrar quem é este sujeito e o local onde ele vive encarcerado: o manicômio judiciário. Tentamos trazer à discussão os dispositivos utilizados, tanto pela Psiquiatria quanto pelo Direito, para classificar e normatizar este sujeito considerado inimputável. Para tanto, guiamo-nos pelas ideias de Michel Foucault, especialmente àquelas que dizem respeito às relações de saber/poder e aos jogos de verdade que permeiam o campo do instituído. Enfatizamos a necessidade de uma atitude crítica por parte do profissional que opera no campo da saúde, assim como alertamos para a importância de se criar ações de resistência frente àquilo que é imposto e considerado como naturalizado pela instituição mesma. Por fim, nos voltamos ao louco-criminoso internado no Manicômio Judiciário para tão somente ouvir as suas histórias. / [en] This dissertation has the objective of problematizing how the criminally insane were viewed along the years within the history of Psychiatry. We want to show who he is, how and where he is incarcerated: the prison for the criminally insane known in Brazil as Manicômio Judiciário. We attempt to bring to the discussion the mechanisms used by Psychiatry and by Law to classify and normatize this human being considered not to be regularly punished. To do so, we are guided by Michel Foucault s ideas, especially those related to the knowledge/power relationships and the truth games which permeate the institutionalized field. We emphasize the need for a critical attitude by the professional who operates in the health arena and also signal to the importance of creating resistance actions to what it is imposed and considered natural by the institution itself. Finally, we approach the criminally insane in the Manicôminio Judicário with the mere intention of listening to their stories.

The essay wants to capture and illustrate the complex role/roles that social workers possess in their work. The purpose of the essay is to find different parts of their work where their different roles are put to the test and challenged. The purpose is to understand how the dualistic role of social workers is created and arises in relation to external and internal expectations. In which situations and contexts do they take on their different roles, i.e. to be someone's "savior" or the person in power and how this in turn affects their work. To understand this, theories of power relations, grassroots bureaucracy and role theories will be applied. The essay is based on a qualitative interview method with four social workers on financial aid in a mediumsized city. The results of the thesis indicate that there are several influencing factors at different levels, which can form the basis for the role conflict. Expectations of the social workers and their assignment, in the form of expected and unexpected assignments in relation to society, the organization and the clients. Where the problem arises from different views on the role of assignments, where they do not correspond to the social workers perception, which in turn creates an internal conflict with the social worker. It can be concluded that the role conflict is created by different expectations of the social workers assignments, from society, the organization, the client and above all themselves. Based on the essay, it can be seen that the different roles that the social secretary holds are only created in relation to someone else.
